Abstract

A pedal assembly that includes a snap-on treadle that can easily be attached to a pedal arm but that cannot be removed without either plastic deformation or fracture of a portion of the treadle. Also, a kickdown mechanism that changes the amount of force required to push a treadle on the pedal as the treadle is pushed further and further. In addition, a hysteresis assembly that controls the feedback that the pedal assembly provides to an operator. Further, a sensor that detects the position of the treadle. Also, rotor assembly that is convenient to assemble.
